If he doesn’t at least get another two-way contract I wonder if he’ll just go overseas. Probably a make or break year for his nba career.

Right now it appears that JS may be without a team. Sounds like he is playing for the Pistons summer league team but no contract. If anyone know different please share.

You are correct, I think the Pistons first summer league game is today. He’s probably hoping to earn another two-way contract with them at the least.

While happy that he is on summer roster, I fear that the Pistons, or any other organization, will really be focused on their draft picks for recent years who will get the PT. I hope I am wrong but wonder if this will lead to a real contract.

Looks like you are correct. Tonight he played 13:45, 0 points(0-1), 0-2 FT, 4 rebounds. JS needs to be more selfish and shoot every time he gets the ball like everyone else. Being a team player like he is just doesn’t work in these situations.

IMHO Slawson hasnt found his game yet and neither have his coaches.
He needs to be down low to show his athletic ability but with his height they try to play him on the wing. But since his 3pt pct is low he is not a big threat.
He needs to be in the middle of the action where his natural athletic ability can kick in not out on the wing away from the play
